this is thanks in part to prop 30 that was his big tax initiative that passed in november. the golden state is now enjoying more than $850 million surplus. it is expected governor brown will taut this success in this morning's state of the state but he'll also look to the future outlining top priorities such as overhauling the state schools finance system and building a massive tunnel system for water in the central valley and constructing what would be the nation's first high-speed rail line. he'll also touch on international trade. the minutes after his speech is done, however, he's off to the first budget hearings where everything is on the table including more spending and this is where it could get hairy for brown. with democratic supermajorities in both the senate and assembly, this gives lawmakers the power to override anything brown vetoes and this is a real possibility because many of them are more liberal than he is. we'll have to wait and see what happens. now if you want to watch the state of the state, we'll stream it live on our website. that of course is nbcb
